Exactly the type of content I’ve come to expect from our favorite username! However, I do wonder why the official position of the DSA is to pacify Russia, up to and including ending military aid to Ukraine. https://international.dsausa.org/ukraine/

Joey Joe Joe!!

Your German is excellent!

So I just looked up Haley and that picture gives me serious demon vibes, and she’s a centrist democrat that supports Schumer so that’s CONFIRMED.

Between the smorgasbord of propaganda and ratings slop, withered attention spans and critical thinking skills, temporarily embarrassed millionaires and gilded age inequality, and folks that just can’t face how bad things really are, yea we are pretty fucked I guess. I don’t think the US is alone in that regard, but indeed beacon on a hill for a humanity in peril. OH my god did I just quote fucking Reagan?!

On WABC (AM 770 in my area) they literally tried to put a negative spin on this! Apparently, since he’s already a millionaire, he doesn’t need it! Evil guy! They even played the clip of him talking about going door to door and no one told him they’re concerned the mayor doesn’t make enough. Beyond fucking delusional. I turn that shit on when I’m looking for maximum and immediate cognitive dissonance.

I understand and appreciate where you desire to go with it, I just don’t see a current system to support it. Afaik people do make their own AIs/LLMs (recalling an artist’s court case regarding the legitimacy of their work), but large scale LLMs do their thing by running roughshod and stealing tons of data and driving up hardware and electricity prices. It is difficult to see an environment where small models prosper compared their lawless corpo counterparts. It would probably be more beneficial to humankind, though.

Well all I will say is that I do understand the usefulness of LLMs as tools, though I only really use them passively through search results, and always verify the results separately. And I have a fundamental understanding of how they work. While I understand what Linus is getting at in a practical sense, I worry he is putting his head in the sand regarding the heavy handed agendas at work in the implementation of AI as we know it now. And I think that is a definite bad thing to be ignorant of. I personally won’t embrace “AI” until it is liberated from the agenda of power and inequality. Though, I cannot but accept its level of influence in daily life, and will attempt to understand and recognize if it fundamentally evolves or changes.

Edit: “they’re just new and selfish people will try to find an angle with them, same as it’s always been.” Just wanted to add that yeah, its pretty highly focused in that way. And until society can fundamentally change, that is and always will be a huge problem applying such technologies. I mean shit, look at the fuckin internet.

This man should have been taken away in a straight jacket.

Edit: also, the whole Jon Ossoff questioning is here, at 1:46:05. Good to hear in it’s entirety: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9BYMPKDB3g

Well most of them won’t read beyond the headline; they’ll likely just make massive assumptions based on title and their own predispositions. Sounds to me like Linus is trying to leave room for some of the practical nature of LLMs and implement them as useful tools, but it seems like he may be a little ignorant of the various agendas of LLM developers themselves. Just my stupid take.

Literally the stupidest fuckin thing anyone could say about this.

Is this related in any way to the supposed plan to merge the American and Israeli militaries?

So when folks such as yourselves get downvoted spectacularly as such, does that just reinforce your underdeveloped, edgy opinions? If so, what a vicious cycle to have to deal with.

Dental plan!

Lisa needs braces…

It’s so incredibly shallow and awful. They don’t even seem to give a shit about their own offspring.

Blowing with the wind, is he? Someone inform me if this isn’t just pure posturing for voters.

Edit: Holy crap! What an interesting split on this comment. Look people, all I was trying to do was glean more info on what type of billionaire behavior this guy’s been exhibiting, and perhaps have a measured discussion on the subject. Truth be told, no billionaire or person of such excessive means can be trusted until separated from such wealth and means, and certainly all high profile politicians say the favorable thing and then do something else. I’d rather folks share what they know etc even just to approximate where this guy is on that scale; it’s interesting (and somewhat disappointing) that the middle ground I imagined (ie: has done some good, still don’t trust him) just really not represented here. I just don’t know where the bar is anymore. I do know that getting vitriolic and irrational, or conversely strongly supporting establishment types is ultimately distracting and a useful tool to those in power.

Hey! These bruises are just makeup!

Well since he’s already metaphorically done it, I guess they figured they might as well set a literal precedent.

Edit: Also, gives me Man in The High Castle vibes. Did we switch to a timeline adjacent or something somehow?

Again it is literally not what you are continually stating in your comments: “editorializing the title” and even then I clearly posted the title and my particular bullshit afterwards. Rewrite the rule more carefully, or continue having this argument almost every single day with various parties (seems a common occurrence from my passive observation). Need not discuss it more; I’ve already altered my post to appease you. Just wish you’d understand your obvious and blatant error (and so do others).
